I just couldn’t fall asleep last night.
Usually I read in bed at night. Without a book, my brain tends to want to review the day ad nauseam and often won’t let me sleep. With a book (kindle) in my hands, my brain shuts up and I slip over the edge of sleep.
To no avail last night, I read till the “book” was touching my nose. But no sleep. Around 4 I gave up and started reading again, eventually I slept, but not nearly long enough.
I was grumpy all day.
Upon arriving to work today, there was a message on the phone. We have a lengthy, advertisement outgoing message, it answers many of the questions people have so there are few actual messages left.
I listened. After a pause, the message leaver could be heard saying “F@*k you” and then hanging up. One would think she might have blocked her number from our caller ID (which keeps a log with times), but the novice crank caller didn’t do that.
In my pissy, grumpy mood, I decided to call her back from the shop phone (so my caller ID would be present).
I got her voice mail and left a brief message:
“Hi, this is Addict from Addictions, I was calling about the message you left on our phone this morning at 11:00 and wanted to make sure everything was OK. Of course you already have our number, if there is anything you need to talk about, give us a call!”
I could have ignored it, I could have been mean… but this just seemed like more fun.
Hopefully I will sleep tonight and not have any voice mails at work in the morning.
